Customer Services


Our aim is to try to resolve your query as quickly and efficiently as possible, within a convenient timeframe for you. With this in mind, we've created this comprehensive help section where you'll find solutions to a wide variety of queries.

Our telephone lines are for sales orders only.  For technical advice, you are welcome to email us and we will try to answer your query, but it is always best to contact the manufacturer directly. Nobody knows products better than the manufacturer, so it's no surprise they can usually answer queries much more quickly and comprehensively than us.

Can I collect my order from you ?

Customers often enquire whether techboost.co.uk offers an order collection service. The answer is 'no' we don't. 

Why?  Well for a number of reasons... Firstly, the techboost way of doing business, is to focus on selling products via the Internet - it's what we're good at!  Secondly, the our warehouse and stock is in sealed boxes on specially tailored product racking, so for health & safety and security reasons, we cannot allow the public inside.

We do understand that some people may want to physically see and possibly even have a demonstration of the products they'd like to buy.  Such a service incurs high costs for any retailer and tends to impact on pricing. Even in physical shops, working demonstrations are only offered on a tiny fraction of products.

Plus, you'll notice that techboost.co.uk prices are nearly always less than High Street shop prices... and this is one of the reasons why we don't introduce such a service. For most products on the techboost.co.uk website, we provide a detailed product specification and a photograph.

I've forgotten my password

To be reminded of your password simply follows these easy steps:

  • Click the 'my account' option in the top right hand corner of our homepage
  • At the login page, click the text below the sign in button that reads 'Forgotten Password?'
  • You will then be asked for your email address.
  • This will trigger a request to us and we'll send you a new password to your registered email address.

For security reasons, this is the only way that we send customer passwords.

 

Which delivery companies do you use ?

We work with a number of delivery companies.

Depending on the size, weight and delivery address of the goods in your consignment, our system will automatically select the delivery company best suited to the needs of your order at any given point in time.  Our main delivery partners are DHL and the Royal Mail. Alternative carriers are used in some circumstances (where goods are particularly heavy or bulky or where goods are despatched directly from the manufacturer).

Our system takes many factors into consideration when selecting the most appropriate delivery method for you to ensure your item reaches you how and when you expect it. Unfortunately this means that customers are not able to specify a preference for any delivery method.

Changing your contact details

You can keep all your contact details up to date though the 'My Account' section.

You can access 'My Account' at any time by clicking the link found in the top right-hand corner of our website. Once logged in, you can choose to manage your contact details, addresses and communications preferences by navigating to the relevant option.

It is your responsibility to keep all your details updated on our website. This ensures we send communication to the right address and, of course, deliver your goods to the right place.

Changing your email address

Log into your account by clicking the 'my account' logo at the top right of our homepage.  Then, enter your previous email address and your current password in the fields provided.  You will now be presented with a list of options regarding your account.  The option you need to select is 'Change login details'.

Enter your details as requested on this screen and click the 'Save Changes' button to complete the process.

Only part of my order has arrived

Sometimes, if necessary, we will ship an order using 'multiple boxes'.  This can happen for a variety of reasons.  For example if you order a product, such as a printer, which will remain in the manufacturer's box and a component or accessory, which would be boxed in a dabs.com box.

If we send you multiple boxes, each box is assigned its own parcel consignment number.  An automated email will be generated for each box/consignment that is despatched/shipped from our warehouse to you. So for example, if we despatch/ship x3 boxes to you, you'll receive x3 emails.  With this in mind please check your email inbox before contacting dabs.com or our delivery company/couriers to locate your goods - this will help you determine if your other boxes are awaiting despatch or are in transit.

Please note that our courier contract only allows for one box per consignment. So for example, an order placed for two printers, will be sent as two separate boxed items, with two different consignment numbers. The customer will receive x2 different emails from us, each showing 'quantity 1'. 

On the other hand, an order placed for two cables will be boxed together in the dabs.com warehouse, so the one box will be treated as a single consignment.  The customer will therefore receive a single email showing 'quantity 2'.

I am not available to receive delivery

Delivery will normally be attempted twice (if courier) and once (if Royal Mail).  With either delivery method, a card will be left instructing you of the best method to collect your goods.  If you do not collect  the item, the delivery company will return the item back to our nationwarehouse where a full credit for the goods (excluding the carriage charge) will be issued back to the original payment method used for the order.  

It is not possible to re-direct an order for several reasons, including security. 

Why do you not offer technical advice over the phone ? 

As an Internet company, techboost.co.uk is a 'value' retailer where our business is geared towards delivering great products at great prices, as efficiently as possible.  By investing in technology to streamline our internal procedures we've been able to keep our prices low, which, when combined with our ability to quickly process and deliver your orders is the main reason customers choose to shop online with us.

We do not offer a telephone service for technical enquiries.  Our telephone lines are for sales orders only. We will always respond to your emails to sales@techboost.co.uk but please bear in mind our catalogue runs into many thousands of products and we cannot possibly attempt to offer advice on every single product.

We believe we can satisfy the needs of our consumer customers most readily via email, than we've historically been able to achieve with a telephone service.

Our website includes all the product information we have available to us and we also recommend the websites of our manufacturer partners.

We hope you'll appreciate the benefits of our approach and we will continue to leverage technology to further enhance your shopping experience with us in the future.
